Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Tuesday, Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) learned that the Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation, Inc. (WHSF), a non-profit organization which sponsors the 3-day Mexican Fiesta in late August matched last year's attendance record of more than 110,000 of fiestagoers who attended the Fiesta in late August 2024 at the Summerfest grounds in Milwaukee. Ruben Burgos, the President of the WHSF Board on Tuesday confirmed to HNNUSA that the 3-day Mexican Fiesta had more than 110,000 fiestagoers in attendance this year at their Summer Mexican, Tejano and Latin Music Fiesta, which operates the largest 3-day Mexican Fiesta gig in the Midwest.

WHSF and Mexican Fiesta hasn't officially announced its attendance record for August 2024, since the organizers are still analyzing their revenue generating and costs data for the 3-day Fiesta.

Fiestagoers from the Midwest including from other parts of the country make their way to Milwaukee annually to attend and enjoy the largest Mexican cultural gig in Milwaukee, which is known as the City of Festivals.

Those attending the 3-day Mexican Fiesta in late August also bring an estimated economic boost to the City and Wisconsin totaling an estimated $22M (http://hispanicnewsnetwork.blogspot.com/2024/01/recap-3-day-mexican-fiesta-economic.html)
